It’s infuriating. I know many citizens and veterans that have to live on less than the refugees get.

For many years, when people that even had insurance told me they had some costly health problem, I would jokingly tell them to go to Mexico, cross over, and pretend to be an illegal. I was only half joking.

“Many of us would be better off learning some Spanish and turning ourselves in at the border as illegals. “

I am going back to Canada and then coming in as an asylum seeker and having my husband and dogs come in as accompanied children.

NIKK....BARR/PRESIDENT...actions!!

I'm supposed to be working right now...

‏Uh... @drawandstrike right over the target, here come the FARA indictments!

‏ “Candace Marie Claiborne traded her integrity and non-public information of the United States government in exchange for cash and other gifts from foreign agents she knew worked for the Chinese intelligence service,”

“She withheld information and lied repeatedly about these contacts. Violations of the public’s trust are an affront to our citizens and to all those who honor their oaths. With this guilty plea we are one step closer to imposing justice for these dishonorable criminal acts.”

“Candace Claiborne broke the public trust when she accepted gifts and money from foreign officials, and then lied about it to State Department background investigators,” said Liu. “The US will continue to seek to hold accountable those who abuse their positions of trust.

“Candace Claiborne was entrusted with Top Secret information when she purposefully misled federal investigators about her repeated interactions with foreign contacts which violated her oath of office as a State Department employee,”

“The FBI will continue to investigate individuals who fail to report foreign contacts, which is a key indicator of potential insider threats posed by those in positions of public trust.”

“Our close working relationship with the FBI and the Department of Justice resulted in the conviction of Candace Claiborne who violated the public trust and damaged our national security,” said Deputy Assistant Secretary Colón.

Diplomatic Security will continue working with our law enforcement partners to vigorously defend the interests and security of the United States of America.”

Claiborne failed to report repeated contacts with two agents of the People’s Republic of China Intelligence Service, even though these agents provided tens of thousands of dollars in gifts and benefits to Claiborne and her family over five years.

DEAR LORD-over 5 years.

In exchange for these gifts and benefits, as stated in the plea documents, Claiborne provided copies of internal documents from the State Department on topics ranging from U.S. economic strategies to visits by dignitaries between the two countries.

Claiborne noted in her journal that she could “Generate 20k in 1 year” working with one of the PRC agents. That same agent at one point tasked her with providing internal U.S. Government analyses on a U.S.-Sino Strategic Economic Dialogue that had just concluded.

After the State Department and FBI investigators contacted her, Claiborne also instructed her co-conspirators to delete evidence connecting her to the PRC agents. She was arrested on March 28, 2017, following a law enforcement investigation.

So was this stuff going on during the Obama Admin - was she working in #crookedhillary's State Dept? cc: @tracybeanz /end

NIKK..I posted this info. YESTERDAY...20) On June 12, 2017 President Trump nominated his first wave of US Attorney candidates.

Jessie Liu, Dep. General Counsel for the US Treasury, was nominated by Trump to replace Phillips.

Liu had also met with Trump prior to her nomination.

Liu was confirmed on Sept. 25, 2017.27) On March 5, 2019, President Trump nominated Liu for the 3rd highest post at DOJ - associate attorney general. Liu had been specifically recommended for the post by AG Barr: “It is clear that she will be an outstanding addition to our leadership team at the Department.”

28) Liu’s nomination fell through on March 28, 2019 due to her prior role as vp of Ntl Assoc of Women Lawyers - which supported abortion rights. Sen. Mike Lee led the opposition to her nomination.

29) AG Barr expressed his displeasure: “She has been an outstanding United States attorney and would have made an outstanding associate attorney general. I have zero doubt she would have faithfully executed my priorities and advanced my rule-of-law agenda.”

*********************

30) Barr then appointed Liu to lead the AG Advisory Committee, which counsels the AG on policy, procedure and management matters that affect federal prosecutors. Barr said he gave Ms. Liu the post so she could............ “play a broader role in the department.”........... John Huber is vice-chair.

31) One of the cases Liu inherited as the U.S. Attorney for D.C. from Channing Phillips was the prosecution of Imran Awan. Awan had pleaded guilty on July 3, 2018, to a federal charge stemming from a false statement made on a home equity loan.

32) A grand jury had been sworn in on Nov. 13, 2016, and formal charges were filed on on Aug. 17, 2017—prior to Liu’s Sept. 25, 2017, confirmation as U.S. attorney.

Phillips’s office had brought no charges against Awan related to allegations of hacking House IT systems.

Yes, that is good news, IF True. Obviously, you also Cates’ tweet to which he is referring?

Brian Cates..commenting on Claiborne........
Oh look another FARA-related indictment, this time a top hand picked Clinton State Dept. person. It’s coming from Demers & Liu, same people who indicted Gregory Craig.

***
What’s that sound I hear on the horizon?

Why it appears to be pants filling all over the DC establishment as it’s starting to sink in that FARA is going to be ENFORCED from now on....

***

Stand by: the rolling up of entire illegal foreign bribery networks has begun.

Manafort/Craig = Ukraine
Claiborne = China

Both the US actors *and* the foreign agents who funnel the $$$ to them have been spotted, tracked and evidence compiled.

***
Other countries who spend a lot of $$$ bribing people illegally in DC:

Qatar
Saudi Arabia [different factions within it]
Iran
Mexico

Expect more of these kind of indictments coming in short order.

***

“The FBI will continue to investigate individuals who fail to report foreign contacts, which is a key indicator of potential insider threats posed by those in positions of public trust.”

That’s a direct shot fired across the bow of DC’s illegal foreign bribery industry.

***
Note once again: before this indictment was unsealed, there was not a whisper this person was being investigated by a grand jury.

There were no leaks. No hints she was in trouble.
***
The DOJ only went public with this prosecution of a big DC power player when they unsealed the indictment.

They followed their standard procedure: no announcement of the start of the investigation, assignment of a US Attorney/s, empaneling of a grand jury to hear the case, etc.

***
There was no updates about what stage the grand jury was at in the investigation that the DOJ never announced.

There was no nothing.

Until today.

***
She was caught.

She knew she was caught.

She and her lawyers looked over the evidence and pleaded guilty.

So will many of the others that are coming.

Craig is fighting it, believing the Swamp will protect him.

He’s wrong about that.

***
“Claiborne, who confided to a *co-conspirator* that the PRC agents were “spies,” willfully misled State Department background investigators and FBI investigators about her contacts with those agents, the plea documents state.”

More indictments are coming in this one case.

***
“...Claiborne also instructed her “co-conspirators” to delete evidence connecting her to the PRC agents.”

Co-conspiratorS - plural. There is more than one other person who will be indicted in this case, it seems.

***
So April 11, was Gregory Craig.

Then today, April 22, was Claiborne.

Can’t wait to see who goes next.

/end

*******************************

Brian Cates

AND...CORRECTION.

Everybody either didn’t know for FORGOT about this case when she got arrested back in 2017. Shoulda checked the archives first!

” She was arrested on March 28, 2017, following a law enforcement investigation.”

***
Wait a minute, she was arrested 2 years ago and they just announced she accepted a plea deal today?

And the indictment mentions CO-CONSPIRATORS, none of whom have been identified yet?

That’s....interesting.

Did she spend 2 years cooperating building cases against others?

***
And note how the co-conspirators are introduced: Claiborne asked them to DESTROY EVIDENCE.
***
Dean Wright

Others will be announced shortly I’m sure.

They’re moving up the list - getting the low-level criminals to flip on those making REAL money. (Hillary, Biden, etc) (Ironically doing exactly what everyone thought Mueller was doing!)

Why do you think they thought they could do it?

Brian Cates ‏

And @JackPosobiec pointed out something I missed: it's OBVIOUS she was engaging in espionage for the Chinese yet...that's not what she's charged with. She was allowed to plea down to a far less serious charge with only 5 years. Becoming clear she got a deal for cooperation. ‏

Somewhere those co-conspirators, whoever they are, have been dreading this day for two years....
